Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew where I could get a pair of rubber mounts for the carbs on a Sprint. The Triumph part code is TKC1338.

Various places will sell you copies of the original mounts...but they will fall apart very quickly as the adhesion between the rubber and metal components is very poor to the point on some of being none existent. Original equipment items are no longer available. Scrupulous dealers, such as Robsport will explain this to you, others may happily sell you rubbish!

This Club sell a tried and tested alternative which are single billet machined aluminium mounts which are 'fit and forget' but as we aren't a retailer, we can only sell to Club members.

Alternatively, you might try a set of good used mounts, but these obviously will have a shorter life than new ones; I might be able to find a useable used pair for you if you don't want the expense of the aluminium ones...

How much are the alloy mounts?
